will joey output correctly to old tube 36" tv?

In my bedroom I still have an old tube TV, I don't watch much in there. Will th joey output correctly to this tv? Is there a selection so this wont look bad? My cabinet will onlyfit a 32" lcd if I switch and I like the cabinet. Thanks!

The signal from the Joey's remote goes directly to the Joey that the remote is linked to. The same for each Hopper in the system. The guide display is generated locally on that Joey (or Hopper). The program video is streamed from Hopper to Joey, but the user interface is generated locally at the Joey.

If you have a Hopper Internet Connector or have a Hopper connected to your home network and set to bridge the connections it is not a needed connection. There are some running Joeys on the home network without a coax connection but that is unsupported.

Yep Joey can also use a USB wifi adapter for wireless TV. Coax is the only supported connection though so if you don't use coax you're on your own if you have any issues. Personally I have a Joey on wifi and no coax connection whatsoever and have never had any issues other than software bugs in the past that were fixed with updates.
